Yosemite National Park is valuable because it was the first wilderness park in the United States. Yosemite is known for its numerous waterfalls, but it also has ancient sequoias trees, deep valleys, meadows and different types of wildlife.

Argument 2: - supporting facts (Hypothesis consequences to future of the natural and cultural resources if threats continue based on the evidence you researched)
Argument 3: - supporting facts (Present possible solutions that the community or actions that the government could take to sustain the natural and cultural resources of the National Park)
